Perfectly said.  I've worked for some really wonderful families, and now for a some people who really don't have regard for others.  Oh the things I could tell you.  I have so many examples.

When it's been a dangerous snow day (serious snow storm), and everyone is being told to stay home and not go on the roads, my employers insist on coming to pick me up if I'm "afraid to drive in the snow".  [/quote]

I'm the pp who wrote the above.  No offense, but the people who responded aren't getting it.  The news is filled with wrecks all over and cars stuck in snow and ice.  The officials are on TV telling people to stay home.  Most businesses in the city are shut down, as are schools.  Then because I say it is too dangerous to be driving in the snow, they say they are coming to pick me up.  Coming to pick me up in the same dangerous conditions which are preventing me from driving!!  Then I would be in their car while they are driving and then I'm still in the same amount of danger as if I had driven!

It is NOT nice, it is rude and unsafe, and disrespectful of me and my right to safety.  They don't have to go into work, but they insist they'll come pick me up and put me in danger anyway.  Not to mention putting themselves in danger.[/quote]
